Veteran midfielder could return to Ligue 1
After the expiration of his contract with Olympiacos, Yann M’Vila, the experienced 33-year-old midfielder, finds himself in an intriguing position, looking for a new chapter in his illustrious career. The former French international, who played for clubs like l’Inter Milanthe Rennais Stadium, AS Saint-Étienne et Sunderlandis now considering a return to Ligue 1, Marseille Olympic et Olympique Lyonnais seem like interesting leads.
During the summer period, rumors linked M’Vila with a move to the Premier League, with reports suggesting that Fulham viewed him as a candidate to replace João Palhinha. However, Palhinha’s move to the Bundesliga ultimately did not materialize, leaving M’Vila on the free agent market, looking for his next destination.
In an interview given to Prime Video Sport, M’Vila said he was open to a return to Ligue 1 and revealed his admiration for the projects of Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais. The midfielder believes that his qualities are compatible with the style of these two clubs, which makes a possible transfer very interesting. “I think my qualities are compatible with these two teams. So why not,” said M’vila, raising the possibility of wearing the Marseille or Lyon jersey.
A return to Ligue 1 is on the horizon
Lyon, who are currently experiencing difficulties in the league after a difficult first part of the season, would seek to strengthen their squad during the next January transfer market. A midfielder would be on the Gones list, and M’Vila could fit the bill, bringing his experience and know-how to the team.
On the other hand, Olympique de Marseille, which aspires to success and wishes to participate in European competition, could also benefit from the presence of M’Vila. The midfielder’s skills and knowledge of the game make him an interesting candidate for a team looking to strengthen their midfield.
While Lyon and Marseille are leading the race for M’Vila’s signature, reports from RMC Sport suggest that another Ligue 1 club, Le Havre AC, have expressed interest in the midfielder. The competition for his services adds an extra layer of intrigue to M’Vila’s potential return to French football.
